I'm pretty convinced even if N64 had a CD drive Nintendo would have went with a proprietary disc format with a smaller capacity than standard CD-R. My guess is 150MB to maybe 300MB. Vs the standard 650MB CD-R and FF7 took 3 discs. Still leading to Square leaving for PlayStation. Nintendo was so paranoid about piracy. Still are. We saw with Gamecube going miniDVD. Wii did use DVD9 but then Wii U used 25GB discs but no option for dual layer. When PS4 launched some of the larger launch games were 21 ish GB. Wii U's largest game came in 2015 with Xenoblade X at 22GB. I just don't see where FF7 and Square stick with Nintendo if we see the reality of who Nintendo was and still is.
Bite my shiny metal cockpit!
